Chapter 7 That's it?
The lights of Alterando at night are brilliant.
Dawn stopped as he passed by, staring at the old man playing the accordion under the light tower of Tulip Avenue for a few seconds, and went over to put down a copper coin.
The old man had a very poor musical talent and was a blind man. However, when Dawn was an orphan, he played here to make a living.
Until tonight, Dawn felt even more moved, feeling that he had finally seen through everything: hard work is a false proposition.
For example, the old man's accordion, like himself, today more than ten years later is even worse than before.
After entering the dark alleyway in the slums, the smell was bad, and the water accumulation on the road seemed even more annoying. Even though chef Dawn was never a particular person, he covered his nose and avoided the puddles.
Finally arrived at a broken yard, it looked like a garbage pit, with wine bottles and some garbage that were full of unknown reasons. When I stepped on it wrong, four or five very large cockroaches would run around.
What's even more terrifying is that it's not just Dawn who came to find Ms. Victor, they have to queue up.
There were already six or seven strong men in front of them stuffed the yard, and they were obviously gang members. One of the men wearing white gloves shouted, "Damn Victor, when will you pay back the money?"
A drunken female voice came from the window: "Get out, she's dead!"
"Even if you die, you will need money. Believe it or not, burn your yard!"
"Has your head been beaten by a bear? You can take away the debts if you don't burn the yard and burn the only thing that can make you pay back. Do you have the brain?"
The guy inside seemed to have nothing to do with his life.
Dawn, who was in the back, looked at all this in shock and thought, was Mrs. Bovary serious?
Shaking his head, Dawn asked nervously, "How much does she owes you?"
"The principal will scare you. The interest for this period is only two silver dollars!"
The man wearing a hat said.
Dawn's cheeks twitched slightly, but in the end he took out his wallet and poured out two silver dollars with distress and paid it to him, thinking: This should be able to make a claim...
When I pushed the door open and fainted, I almost fainted. There were women's dirty clothes, smelly socks, etc. everywhere. It was still dark and lit.
"Didn't I owe you money, do you?"
The drunk Mrs. Victor shook over and took the bang and lit the inferior tobacco.
When facing such a person, even fat people feel superior, so Dawn is not angry and waves his hand lightly: "You don't know me, and I don't want to know you either. To put it short, someone introduced me to the consultation fee... After you answer, the silver dollar I will pay for you will be cleared."
Before she could respond, Dawn took out a complex drawing to unfold, "These two structures, one from me more than ten years ago, and the second one was recently modified. Which one is better?"
"Ahem—"
The drunk Mrs. Victor just took a casual look at the drawings and continued to smoke hard, making herself dizzy.
Dawn no longer had hope. Unexpectedly, someone was even more useless than himself. A sense of superiority arose, so he put away the drawings and left decisively.
When I went downstairs, I heard the drunk female voice muttering: "Both are super bad, they can't be any more bad. I don't deserve to make insoles for me."
It's intolerable!
After thinking about it after coming out, Dawn simply cursed at the yard, like the group of people who had just come to collect the bills.
After a long time, he couldn't curse anymore, and the drunk female voice inside said again: "Okay, if it can make you a stupid pig with a fat heart feel better, then yes, after more than ten years of modification, the new architecture has indeed made some progress. Although it is just a micro-adjustment, the idea is more interesting. Unfortunately, you are too late to get such a turning point in your mind. What else do you want to jump around?"
Dawn, who was about to leave, suddenly became rigid and could not take it out for a long time!
Some were excited and a little angry.
I don’t know who she is, but I actually said that Du Wei’s “graffiti” is progress?
Considering that this guy was just repaired by usury, should she believe it or not?
"I believe you."
Finally, Dawn left angrily: "Dare you to say that a nine-year-old child who has never learned anything is a progress in graffiti? Who are you fooling? What else can you understand besides smoking and drinking?"
After Dawn left, Madame Victor's lifeless look appeared in the window again. A glimmer of light flashed through his extremely dark eyes, and he muttered to himself: "Okay, the dead world seems to be interesting again."
...
At night, Du Wei dreamed of lemon.
After enduring the bitterness, I gradually overcame my teeth and found that there were lemons everywhere in my dreams, which gradually grew out. Then the lemons began to ascend, like the starry sky?
It's just that except for a few of the lemons with rich details and obvious smell, most of the other starry sky are just backgrounds, and details cannot be imagined for the time being.
While feeling the silence and frequency of the "starry sky", Du Wei entered a deep sleep that was almost turtle's breath that he had never entered...
In the afternoon, I skipped class and came to the kitchen, and listened to Daoen's lectures while working. It doesn't matter if I have both minds.
There is no way to lose the class. Anyway, every time you only need to start for five minutes and look at the title on the blackboard, Du Wei knew everything they were going to say, so he could cover his stomach and say he wanted to go to the bathroom.
Today's fat man is more sentimental than before, and he talks about the origin of the arcane and the current situation with a very ritualistic sense.
At the top of this world, there are first of all the five top arcane academies. There is no one among the five major ones. They have academic exchanges with each other. At the same time, they have competitions and exchanges every two years, which are all of them.
"What a pity is that let alone the Five National Congresses, none of the first-line colleges belong to the Republic."
Dawn showed a memory look and said, "That period was the peak of the Republic's arcane world, and Dadu Academy was the period when it was most likely to enter the ranks of top-tier universities. Unfortunately, the proud daughter of the world-renowned world... Alas, for no reason, she suddenly withdrew from the competition without logic and was expelled from Dadu Academy."
Du Wei just listened curiously, without taking notes, just remember it after hearing it.
Dawn put away his thoughts and replied to his spirit: "The five major things are the mirror and the moon. Don't think about it anymore. With the cultivation of Dawn..., we can use ten years of hard work to get your chance to enter Dadu College, which means you have succeeded and I have also succeeded. You don't have to have good grades, you don't need to be recorded in history. As long as you graduate, you can be respected and live decently. At the same time, I am also successful, at least you have done what I didn't do back then."
"Mr. Dawn..."
Duwei's nose was a little sour and he didn't know what to say.
After being stimulated by a sloppy girl, Dawn seemed to have changed her own person. She smiled and said, "Child, you don't owe me. What I give you now is what you earn with your character and labor. Although Dawn is not a big man and has no big resources, as long as you are willing, you can learn from me to enlightenment. You have to walk the path of the future by yourself, but I will support you as much as possible."
"Yes." Du Wei nodded quickly.
Dawn said again: "Can you really think of most of the characteristics of lemons? I am not referring to thinking. There must be lifelike lemons and still icy images?"
"Yes, there was a starry sky of lemons last night, and there were details of three lemons, one with ice, one with spots, and the other with green. I gently squeezed them with my will, like using a magnifying glass to observe the small water vapor sputtered from the lemon skin. I felt that the smell of water could kill me, so I didn't dare to 'eat'... What's wrong with you, Mr. Dawn?"
